The project
This packaging brings together two mechanisms in one box: a sliding tray for the jewellery and an opening blade mechanism on top that reveals a metal piece. Archicercle collaborated with Meteorito Estudio on the design and structural development, and carried out the MDF fabrication and the engraving of the metal element.
The structural development addressed how the different components of the box fit together. We used MDF in several thicknesses, worked through laser cutting and engraving. The combined components accommodate both the jewellery compartment and the upper mechanism within a single assembly.
The jewellery sits in the central tray, which slides out like a drawer. Magnets inside the box hold the drawer closed. Access to the jewellery is therefore provided by a sliding movement, with a magnetic closure integrated into the box.
On top, the blades open to reveal a gold-plated metal piece at the centre. We engraved this element with a fibre laser, in a separate operation from the laser cutting and engraving of the MDF components.
The finished piece combines side access to the tray with the opening blades on top. These two movements define how the packaging is used, connecting its structural development with the presentation of the jewellery and the metal element.
